The effects of coarse recycled concrete aggregates on long-term behavior of concrete (shrinkage and creep) are investigated. Most important corresponding prediction models have been compared with experimental findings obtaining a systematic underestimation of results. The adhered mortar of the recycled concrete aggregates is determined and its influence on the final concrete properties is investigated as its content and porosity can influence the final properties of the new concrete.

Abstract
The effects of coarse recycled concrete aggregates on long-term behavior of concrete (shrinkage and creep) are investigated. Most important corresponding prediction models have been compared with experimental findings obtaining a systematic underestimation of results. The adhered mortar of the recycled concrete aggregates is determined and its influence on the final concrete properties is investigated as its content and porosity can influence the final properties of the new concrete.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
